Coil Loot Sytem

Thats better! I think it would be awesome to be able to get dyeable High Allagan gear in Savage Coil, I really like the stuff used by the NPC's in Syrcus Tower (sorry I can't remember their names). I have yet to get to Savge Coil my self though, my old raid team started slowly falling apart in August and we just cleared the turns we had already done each week while members were away. But I joined a new team at the start of this month and am now in the 4th phase of T9 so hopefully I will be able to try it soon.

I would like a dyeable set too but like you previously mentioned, a token system. It would have to be a loot drop, people roll on the tokens, then these are exchanged for a select piece. Reason being, since savage is so much harder, you should get that choice for putting in the effort. Plus, you probably won't really need it if you can already beat savage. But the tokens should only work for loot that drops off that turn.

For example, a T6 token or T7 token will buy gear from their corresponding loot list.

Thats a really good idea. I like how you can tell what turns players have done by knowing the turn that their gear drops from. By doing it like this you can still separate the gear while making the static have greater control over gear distribution. Of course for unorganised statics this could be a pain as it could lead to arguments and players falling out, but really most groups should be able to sort out a fair system.

Or you could have individual tokens that every member gets each kill but you need say four tokens per turn for each item. But then the down side to that would be that after eight kills most players would have all the loot they need for that turn.

I did t6 the first week, and I still miss my T6 healer earings.
It's not like I really care about this, but I still miss also the T8 hat (not even one healer of the group got this item...) but I saw 6 or 7 shields (I think was 6), this loot system is frustrating.

My friend healer is really mad now, becoz he passed the chest for me month ago, and it doesn't drop anymore, I feel sad for her.

Yes, this loot system suck a little.

(we got also 5 WHM staff, fuck RNG)

Could be my coil group.. I think everyone and their alts have tank feet, pants, and shields.. and we've gotten enough DRG armor to equip 6 or 7 DRGs nearly in full HA armor.. BRD and caster loot not so much so.. certainly desirable pieces almost never drop (hello gloves and hat) while others drop frequently. RNG is what it is though, so its shrug and move on. :|

If it isnt a lets nag about the Atma drop system

It is a lets nag about SCOB drop system


really?
In 14 days i did 18 times ST. Currently I need only one drop. Amons Pants. It never showed up. But Skylas coat of casting 5 times. Amons Hat 6 times, that other body 5 times and 2 times something else I can't remember ... And don't get me started on the previous weeks. Did I open a thread for it? No. Because at the end of it all it comes down to
Do the Pug gots like you, or do they hate every pixel of your soul.

Damn I shouldn't have made this thread, I'm waiting precious kb's of the internet afterall.... ST is a joke though, missing loot for a couple of weeks isn't comparable to five months, and then if you don't get what you want you can just re-run it. Who even takes that loot seriously anyway? I haven't bothered with that place for a while now. This is my first time complaining about it on the forums, but I think after two patches and five months have passed without me getting a single drop for my main it's a fair complaint... especially when the lock out is going to end soon.

In my groups we have just had an abundance of Tank, Healer and Caster loot the old DRG didn't do too bad but Monks and Bards have had sod all.

I just don't see any point to doing coil any longer since they will inevitably add gear that will be on the same level after the coil patch.

2 People in my group now have about every BRD drop minus anything from T9(Since we have not cleared it). I did get majority of my DRG gear though. I mean, RNG is RNG, it's there to make you keep playing for that set goal you have in mind. For what purpose would you have to continue logging on if you've attained everything you set out for? I mean, sure, they could ease it up a bit. Not likely though.
